Lactic acid bacteria vs Biogenic amines
-
The presence and accumulation of biogenic amines depends on many factors such as the presence of specific bacteria having the necessary decarboxilase enzymes, availability of free amino acids (which may imply the presence of a microflora having proteolytic activity allowing peptides hydrolyse into free amino acids) and the existence of proper environmental physical conditions.

Lactid Acid Bacteria
-
Oenococcus oeni is a lactic acid bacteria (LAB) of economic interest used in winemaking. This bacterium is the preferred species for malolactic fermentation (MLF) due its adaptability to the chemically harsh wine environment. MLF enhances the organoleptic properties and ensures deacidification and microbial stability of wines. After depletion of malic acid, LAB can use amino acids in wine, producing biogenic amines, as a mechanism to obtain survival energy.
